That is a mechanical hydraulic transmission..therefore no electronics to cause problems. Most likely a K-2 clutch pack problem & possibly a valve body problem.

Either way it is internal.

Drive the car at about 45 to 50 MPH, back off the gas pedal and move the shifter lever to neutral, then step on the gas and at the same time move the lever to drive, if the transmission shifts into 4th gear, it’s a struck valve in the valve body.
